Puppy Chow (muddy buddies)


I grew up on this stuff!! We always used to make it for movie nights!! It was such a treat. I always called it puppy chow but, I guess in the west its called muddy buddies. Either way, its a yummy snack and something the kids can help make!

9 c. Chex cereal (rice, corn, wheat.. or any combination of the 3)
1 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 c. peanut butter
1/4 c. butter
1 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 c. powdered sugar

Into large bowl, measure cereal; set aside. In 1-quart microwavable bowl, microwave chocolate chips, peanut butter and butter uncovered on High 1 minute; stir. Microwave about 30 seconds longer or until mixture can be stirred smooth. Stir in vanilla. Pour mixture over cereal, stirring until evenly coated. Pour into 2-gallon resealable food-storage plastic bag or a very large mixing bowl that has a lid!
Add powdered sugar. Seal bag; replace lid; shake until well coated. Spread on waxed paper to cool. Store in airtight container.
